A Lesson from Giada

I usually hate the morning Today show, so I can't explain why I still watch it when I'm home in the mornings. But two things actually stood out to me this morning as I rolled around the floor with the Bear.

I learned;
1) more Americans owe a greater amount of student loans than they do on their credit cards, and that the country's total is nearing a trillion dollars (student loans)
- this came literally 5 minutes after I was perusing GVSU's graduate website. I was intrigued about the possibility of going back to grab a few grad classes in hopes to, I don't know, receive a Christmas miracle and get my MI teaching license (on a silly note- each and every time I write the word license I mix up the s and the c, EVERY time). Well, now that story makes me want to wait that out a little.

2) Giada (cooking guru) suggested baking friends Xmas treats and gifting the food plus the bakeware. I thought this was an awesome idea. Nice Giada. I still think her shirts are way too low-cut but whatever. Honestly even I'm distracted when I watch that show. Anyway. Harrison and I jumped into the car over his naptime and while I hit up Marshalls and World Market he snoozed like a champ. Now all I need to do is bake and take. (spoiler alert for those of you that read this and receive this gift, Merry Christmas!)

Oooops, I hear the Bear. That was a short afternoon nap. Anything under 15 minutes just doesn't count.
